Vander Heiden Lab at MIT

Matt Vander Heiden at the AACR opening plenary: unifying cancer science and medicine--a continuum of innovation for impact

"The role of science in society is being challenged and we must acknowledge that there's a divide between our success in improving cancer care and how that success is perceived by the public."

Metabolite profiling of human renal cell carcinoma reveals tissue-origin dominance in nutrient availability Assessing metabolites in renal cell carcinoma and kidney tissue suggests cancers adapt rather than dictate nutrient availability.

Looking at human kidney cancer, we profiled nutrient levels in the tumor environment and found they are similar to nutrient levels in healthy kidney tissue, suggesting tumors must work within constraints of nutrients available rather than change nutrient environment. elifesciences.org/articles/95652
